Used book – Why I Ate My Father, Roy Lewis, Rita Barisse, Vercors

"Your damn fire is going to wipe out all of you, you and your kind, and in no time, believe me! Yah! I'm going back up my tree, this time you've crossed the line, Edouard, and remember, the brontosaurus crossed the line too, where is it now? Back to the trees! he cried out in a rallying call. Back to the trees!"

The inventions and misfortunes of Edouard, a hominid genius, opposed by his brother Vania, a prehistoric environmentalist, narrated with the linguistic quirks of our modern ethnologists, earned this hilarious novel immediate success.
